Post Holiday #FitnessFriday

I hope you all had a great holiday – whether you celebrate Christmas or were just celebrating Wednesday, I hope you had a great day! We had a great day, a long day, but a really good day. Santa was nice to all of us and we had some super delicious food! I’m especially thankful for the leftovers that I was sent home with and will be enjoying the next few days.

Anyway, it’s the last #FitnessFriday party of 2013! I hope you’ve all enjoyed staying accountable throughout the year and sharing your fitness with us. I know I’ve had fun.

With that, I’m in a constant state of improvement – in my relationships, in my work, in my life and yes, with this blog. I’m still working out what that really looks like for 2014, but one of the first things is that I’ve decided to take away the FitnessFriday link-up. It was fun while it lasted but it’s time to move on to bigger and better things. And for those of you who come around every Friday to link-up, thank you, I hope you hang around and find more reasons to stick around. I’ll still be sharing my weekly workouts but there will no longer be a link-up. There appear to be other Fitness Friday related link-ups out there, so there’s always others to participate in if that’s your thing.

With that, let’s take a look at my workouts this week:

Friday 12/20

GPP – TUES STAB PRESS

Wednesday 12/25

I’ve still been fighting off the cough that came with my cold (yes, still!) but I’ve been able to pick up my workouts quite a bit. Several strength sessions, my first run since Boston/being sick and some yoga. It was a great week of workouts and I’m feeling great.

I’m also still trying to figure out my fitness goals for 2014 so if you have any suggestions or ideas, please feel free to share! 😉

And now, for the final #FitnessFriday link-up party. Make sure to check out everyone’s posts!

Merry belated Christmas! Great pic! I’m sad to see the link-up go, but glad to hear you’ll still be posting and sharing what you’re doing workout-wise. I, too, am looking for ways to improve next year in my fitness and health. Happy new year!

Honestly, I don’t often do them but didn’t feel like coming up with my own workout so I did a little searching through their workouts and found these two. They may be favorites out of any that I have tried before, though! I’ve also done their Biker Babe routine which I really liked. There have been a few others I’ve done and not liked as much but I want to try them again and see if I can fully commit to them and get the butt kicking I did from these others!
